Summary
“It’s just stupid, I’m, being stupid, right now.”
“You’ve said that before,” Rantaro remarks faintly, thinking about another time that he saw Shuichi crying, a quieter, more intimate time than this is, and the detective deflates a bit, his shoulders dropping and his forehead too, knocking against his knee with a dull thud. “If you say it’s stupid, then maybe it is, but you’re still crying over it.”
After a sticky, prolonged silence, Shuichi’s voice mumbles, “I am,” and his shoulders slump even further. “If you’re wondering,”
“I’m not,” clarifies Rantaro; a lie.
“I was looking over a case file.” Shuichi continues, and Rantaro’s smile takes on a wry edge, because they both know him better than to believe what he just said.
---
Shuichi confesses that he fears death, and the death of others, and the promise of a gaping nothingness that comes alongside it. (Rantaro talks him through it.)
